I've seen more and more little A.I.-generated ditties like this recently and their reception tends to be the same: that they're interesting and funny but don't sound that great.

The output would probably be more compelling if A.I. were adopted more as an instrument by individual artists/composers to automate some of their more tedious tasks by learning their own particular styles rather than a magical music box that churns out top hits.

Hey keehun, I'd be happy to add some annotations if you're really interested. shoot me an email keypulsations at gmail

i'm really interested in chuck. ge wang is a brilliant guy

here's some SuperCollider music i wrote if anyone is interested.

audio: https://soundcloud.com/keypulsations/liljedahl_abiogenesis_1

maybe i'll add comments to describe what's going on. if you have SC running i'd be glad to walk you through it

ya, pick it back up! i'd focus more on trying to make something that sounds nice/interesting rather than realistic. physical modeling sounds is an art to itself

thanks for the comment :) what i would do is start with an SC tweet:

and reverse engineer / expand upon it

SC and any text based audio programming language does something interesting in that it combines the instrument creation and compositional process. ultimately it's great to create your own instrument / musical process (maybe they are one in the same), but it can be productive to focus on the latter just to start with by using someone else's instrument to learn from
